After 291 days, Barcelona managed to recover La Liga's top spot. Real Madrid dropped points at home, giving Los Blaugranas the chance to pass the Spanish capital giants in their never-ending battle to win the domestic tournament.
This weekend, Barcelona will face a team that has become a thorn on their side, as Celta Vigo prepare to raid the Camp Nou while trying to topple Luis Enrique's team from the top. Celta has beaten Barcelona three times over the past three seasons, being one of the few teams with a positive record against Los Blaugranas since Luis Enrique took the team's coaching job.
On the other hand, Real Madrid will try to rise from its ashes when they meet against Eibar at Ipurúa Stadium. Zidane's men have never lost a game against Los Armeros, winning four and drawing once. Real Madrid will have a couple of absences, as Raphael Varane (injury) and Gareth Bale (suspended) will have to watch this game from the stands.
